About the 2018 Civic Type R

The 2018 Honda Civic Type R is tearing up the roads of New England with record-setting performance. Drivers all over the Northeast are loving the Type R’s 306 horsepower and 295 lb-ft of torque coming from the 2.0L turbocharged 4-cylinder engine. The Active Damper System, Limited Slip Differential, and Brembo brakes make sure the Type R stays firmly planted on the road for maximum control on the twisty roads of Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Vermont. The Civic Type R’s legendary heritage was demonstrated when the it set the lap record at the infamous Nürburgring for FWD production vehicles in 2016.

Engineered for pure driving enjoyment, the Civic Type R was developed with a near-roof height rear wing, vortex generators, functional side skirts, as well as a front splitter, meaning this is one aerodynamic sedan. The gloss black grille, red badging, and aggressive body lines give the Type R a striking appearance.

Climb into the cockpit and you’re greeted with exclusive red & black suede-effect bucket seats, a 6-speed manual transmission, and sport pedals specifically designed for heel-toe downshifting. The +R and Comfort modes will provide an aggressive driving machine and a mild-mannered comfortable ride, respectively. Top it all off with an individually numbered plaque—proof that each Civic Type R is truly a unique beast.
